At a cost of 1.3 Billion. First of it's kind in the US. Imagine, a road open only to Commercial Vehicles. No bitching about four wheeler's causing problems. Just other CDL holders. Guess you retired early.

The traffic is so pathetic theses days. Not just the 4 wheelers but also those 18 wheel wannabe truck drivers. The truck express lanes would be outstanding especially in the Northeast and West Coast, but, I can hear the 4 wheelers already moaning and groaning.

I do not dive down there , but in my naïve opinion, I should think that the 4-wheelers would be glad to be shed of the trucks??? Steamboat sends

However, when they feed back in at the ends, it will be a mess. Just like it is now at Macon. It will have two such interchanges, but the other at Atlanta. That stretch is often the longest parking lot in Georgia currently.
